| summary | In a rapidly changing world, theories of cognition have remained adaptive and non-responsive. With the increasing emergence of integrative, non-computational models from embodied and affective cognitive science, understanding how everyday cognitive mechanisms are viewed and described remains a challenge. In this lecture, I will propose a potential new framework to study cognitive adaptability that takes variables such as diversity, societal demands, personal skills and laboratory- based measurements of cognition into account. I will draw examples from the adaptive mechanisms at work in socially intricate diverse contexts (with regard to language use) and how they dynamically modulate personal cognition. I will present experimental data that shows how people strategically adapt to a situation and demanding interlocutors, to facilitate communication and cognition. The proposed framework makes empirical predictions about different people and cultures. The framework proposes newer ways to interpret reactionary discriminative data that is generally acquired in laboratory-based tasks, which may have little relevance for actual everyday cognition in societies with greater diversity. Experimental data will be presented from domains such as cognitive science studies on bilingualism, attention and neuroimaging results from illiterate cognition. |
